About me:

Animate Projects commissions artists to make work that explores the relationship between contemporary art and animation, for broadcast, gallery, cinema and online exhibition.

Established in 1990, Animate has commissioned over 90 innovative and challenging films by artists. It is the longest running broadcast-linked project ever supported by Arts Council England, and the most consistent commitment ever made by Channel 4 to the independent production of experimental and artists' work. Selected through an open call for proposals, the commissions are broadcast by Channel 4 and have gained critical and popular success at international festivals and achieved television sales around the world.

Animate Projects is building on and extending the existing commissioning programme, developing new partnerships and collaborations. We aim to realise the potential of the Animate Archive; exploit the opportunities of digital distribution; develop participatory projects and foster critical debate.

Animate Projects is funded by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and by Channel 4. Visit us at animateprojects.org


Animate new commissions

Animate Projects is proud to announce seven new commissions, which explore a variety of themes, including ecology, mental health and creativity, and the forgotten military history of a bleak East Anglia landscape. Techniques include time-lapse film, hand drawn rotoscope, and animated ceramic hybrid characters. Also, for the first time, we are commissioning two online commissions.

The commissioned artists’ backgrounds range from the visual arts, experimental film, graphic design, animation, and ceramics.

The artists are:
Barnaby Barford
Suky Best
Emily Richardson
Tal Rosner
Christoph Steger
Stephen Irwin
Michael Aubtin Madadi

For more information visit AnimateTV 2008.


Animate new films

To see the films shown on Channel 4 in December 2007, plus the artists' interviews, check out AnimateTV 2007.
End of the Street, Andy Martin. End of the Street takes the original 19th Century Beaufort Wind Force scale and conjures a response. Incrementally turning up the strangeness.
Flat Earth, Thomson and Craighead. Flat Earth weaves material found online, taking us on an extraordinary seven-minute journey around the world as seen through the eyes of web-bloggers.
Francis, Let Me Feel Your Finger First. An account of the creation of a 9-year old ‘disturbed’ animated character. As the draughtsman’s hand goes to work and Francis attains animated consciousness, his behaviour is observed and assessed by a child psychologist.
Magnetic Movie, Semiconductor. Natural magnetic fields are revealed as chaotic ever-changing geometries as scientists from NASA’s space sciences laboratory excitedly describe their discoveries.
The Life Size Zoetrope, Mark Simon Hewis. The Life Size Zoetrope is the morose life story of one man, told via a one-take live action shot of a human zoetrope containing the film.
Tongue of the Hidden, David Alexander Anderson. The poet Hafez, ‘The Teller of Secrets’, used the language of human love and metaphor to describe his intoxication with the mysteries of the Universe.

Animate Products

Currently on offer we have limited edition t-shirts, badges, books and DVDs. There are exclusive t-shirt designs by artists AL and AL and Run Wrake; the animate! book, with essays, artists' interviews and a DVD of 10 films; and The Animators catalogue, published to coincide with the exhibition curated by Angela Kingston.

Humans dream to create their future. For robots; it's metal and wire today, perhaps flesh and blood tomorrow.
